Convention of States Kansas caught up the Good Witch of the North as she and her young friend Dorothy barnstorm Kansas to call everyone to petition their legislators to pass the Convention of States resolution in 2020.
Good Witch: Our Constitution is written to limit the power of the federal government and ensure that the real power resides with people in the states. Dorothy has seen that the elected officials and the appointed bureaucracy hold the real power. They have gamed the rules in Washington to take care of themselves and now the states seem to serve the wants and wishes of imperial Washington instead of the way it was intended to work. The government has run up a 22 trillion dollar national debt and they are not concerned about the people at home who will be stuck to pay it off. They have given us thousands of pages of regulations and case law that has made Kansans nothing more than Munchkins serving the old wicked witch. Dorothy has had enough! She wants to do something to fix Washington!
COS: What can she do about it?
Good Witch: I told her that just like she has always had the power to return home using the ruby slippers, the States have always had the power to propose the amendments to our Constitution that will bring about the changes we need.
